The US-born Simone Dinnerstein is no teenage prodigy – Juilliard trained, she has been around for a while, and after the huge success of her self-financed solo debut recording of the Goldberg Variations, she has now been signed up by Sony. Her first disc for that label is, predictably enough, more Bach, and it gives a good sense of her generally romantic approach to playing the composer's music on a modern concert grand, in which expressive warmth and beauty of tone seem to be prized above other qualities. It's a style that's perfectly suited to the three chorale-prelude arrangements by great 20th-century pianists (Ferruccio Busoni, Wilhelm Kempff and Myra Hess) that separate the more substantial works, in which Dinnerstein's ability to project a singing line comes into its own. But the concertos and the English Suite demand something more, sharper rhythmic profiles and greater textural imagination; compared with the great Bach pianists of today – Hewitt, Perahia, Anderszewski, all very different – these are dutiful but dull performances.
